Hey fuckface, if you want to type the word fuck then type the word fuck. Quit dancing all around the word. Do you think you're special because your little f is a little different than everyone else's little f? Fucking elitist.

And Jebus GAWD I hope you're kidding too.

I always assume that some people my have profanity filtering on their internet connection at work. I don't want to be the one who gets Cellar content blocked. So when I type ƒuck I do the "F" as Alt+0131 (hold down the Alt key and type 0131 on the numeric keypad).

How's about just not using that word? Or some of the other ones? What is really being added by using profanity? If your argument is a load of crap, it's a load of crap. Cursing someone out isn't going to make it better.

Since this thread is the #1 snoozefest of all time anyway...

I try to type in a natural manner of speech. If, in real life, I would say to someone "What the ƒuck are you talking about?!" then I would type that same thing to that same person, online. What is being added, not exclusively by the profanity, but by a variety of editorial decisions, is a conversational quality to the post.

Please elaborate. Do you find a specific "argument" of mine to be a "load of crap" or are you saying that it MUST be a "load of crap" BECAUSE it included profanity? Are you of the mistaken impression that I have implied somewhere the belief that the inclusion of profanity is a guarantee towards quality of content (i.e. what is "being added" mentioned above)? Where is the phantom argument that you are refuting here?

Oh, and, by use of the word "crap" is your own post, is the post itself not completely invalidated (by your own logic)?
